Textured Art Journal Page - Start to Finish

Last Thursday I posted this textured art journal page (see more here). I used more than 30 products/textures on this page and, since I always like to see the process behind a project, I thought I would share that with you.

So here's the final page.

It all started with a "clean up" page where I clean off my paintbrush or stencils and use later as a base of a page.

About Me

I am a self-taught mixed media artist living in Ft. Worth,Texas. My husband and I have five grown children and four precious grand boys ages 3 and under. Two of our daughters are flight attendants for Southwest Airlines which enables us to travel frequently, most often to visit the little ones. I have always been crafty. About fifteen years ago I attended my first stamp convention and was hooked from then on. I started making cards and paper crafts which then evolved into creating with all kinds of media. My current passions are art journaling, bible journaling and mixed media projects. I love learning new techniques and using lots of "lotions and potions." I have been designing and teaching paper crafts and mixed media for nine years, the past five of which have been at The Little Blue House, a creative paper arts studio in Keller, TX. I created this blog to document and share my creative endeavors and hope visitors will enjoy sharing the journey with me. I would love for you to follow me and leave comments!
